Isaiah 18 and the Future of AmericaThe King James Version (KJV) is included below because copyright permission is not required to use it. The KJV is a good translation because of the texts that were used but it is not perfect. Newer translations may change words in part to help secure a copyright. Copyrights can only be gained from authors for new work or work which is substantially different from the original work. The copies of the Bible we have today in Hebrew are the authority. If the English varies from the Hebrew the English is translated wrong. Many versions I find translate Cush incorrectly as Ethiopia. The New King James Version, Revised Standard Version, New Living Translation, American Stand Version, Reina-Valera (Spanish) and the Latin Vulgate read as Ethiopia. The New International Version, New American Standard Bible, Young's Literal Translation, English Standard Version, Darby Translation and Webster's Bible do not make this mistake. Note the superscripts in the verses below. Isaiah 18:1 Woe to the land shadowing1 with wings2, which is beyond the rivers of Ethiopia3: Isaiah 18:2 That sendeth ambassadors by the sea, even in vessels of bulrushes upon the waters, saying, Go, ye swift messengers, to a nation scattered4 and peeled5, to a people terrible6 from their beginning hitherto; a nation meted out7 and trodden down8, whose land the rivers have spoiled!9 Isaiah 18:3 All ye inhabitants of the world, and dwellers on the earth, see ye, when he lifteth up an ensign on the mountains; and when he bloweth a trumpet, hear ye. Isaiah 18:4 For so the LORD said unto me, I will take my rest, and I will consider in my dwelling place like a clear heat upon herbs, and like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest. Isaiah 18:5 For afore the harvest, when the bud is perfect, and the sour grape is ripening in the flower, he shall both cut off the sprigs with pruning hooks, and take away and cut down the branches. Isaiah 18:6 They shall be left together unto the fowls of the mountains, and to the beasts of the earth: and the fowls shall summer upon them, and all the beasts of the earth shall winter upon them. Isaiah 18:7 In that time shall the present be brought unto the LORD of hosts of a people scattered and peeled, and from a people terrible from their beginning hitherto; a nation meted out and trodden under foot, whose land the rivers have spoiled, to the place of the name of the LORD of hosts, the mount Zion. Italicized words are words that are not actually present in the copies of the manuscripts but are thought by the translator to be strongly suggested or implied by the text in the original language. See the following list for the Hebrew meaning from Strong's Exhaustive Concordance. Hebrew words are numbered HXXXX.
